The traditional five slowest days of the Blegsylvanian year start today, I've a bleggalgaze, as in not just *this* blag, it's important not to post bleggalgazes at any time but especially when I *want* to, and (update) I want to, though I will say current plans do not include compulsory cursing at Democrats in multiple variations of What Did You Fucking Expect from Motherfucking Neoliberal Corporate Warmongers, though of course I do today and will
Also too: Last reminder that between blooger and me a blogroll got eliminated, there is a new one below Doctor Sevrin, Also too, I know I didn't remember everyone offed in the elimination, I've added the few I do, and there're totally new places to visit too, if I accidentally killed you please let me know.
Also too, the house to our right has two new kittens, the woman who owns the house rents out rooms to people in their twenties, maskless people come and go (peaceably, quietly, this is not a complaint about loud parties until three in the morning), dozens of maskless people hold and cuddle and breathe on these kittens and these kittens immediately knew I am a cat-whisperer and want to be my buddy, they run to tell me every time I leave the house, I talk to them, don't touch them not out of fear for my health but by the request of loved ones and out of respect for the health of said loved ones, so damn, but here's *Your* Thanksgiving Olive loaf
- Shithole oligarchy
- Yes, global financial crises inevitably reinforce capitalism
- I can't imagine I could if I *wanted* to stop barking at our shitlords (which is why I want want to stop compulsively cursing at motherfucking Democrats who are only doing their job)
- Hillary approves
- Centrist Democrats *are* right-wing
- The wound that never heals: Lacan meets Trump
- Scapegoating to unity
- The bullshit whiteness of the hillbilly
- Mad MAGA men
- Olive, I should write an olivegaze
- I did not know of Johannes Göransson until yesterday, not saying it's love, saying I climbed two flights of stairs from the floor of the office I type this sentence and found one of two collections Göransson supposedly owned and in stacks by the Library, not saying it's love but it's a one night stand at least
- UPDATE! 2020 November 27
DEAR TOURISTS
Johannes Göransson
1)i had never heard of this swedish american poet either - in reading about him i discovered he was interested in a genre of poetry i hadn't heard of before - gurlesque - the 2010 anthology by that title has a cover picture of an open mouth displaying a tongue
ReplyDelete2)with regard to one night stand i was reminded that yesterday on the way home from picking up books reserved for me at the no-contact table outside my local public library i heard, on the car radio, prince's 'little red corvette' - before that i had listened to 'happy xmas (war is over)' from john and yoko, and after it 'jamming' by bob marley and the wailers - i took the long way home to hear the whole thing
each of these songs has a wikipedia entry which might be of interest to some
3)as does a song i am reminded of by the poet's phrase print your name and number in the bathroom

among the things i'm thankful for is music on the radio
Deleteas an elementary school kid in falls church virginia in the 1950s i would lie under the bedcovers at night with a transistor radio - which had a fairly strong smell, i recall - and listen to stations from new york city and boston and chicago and wheeling west virginia
artists i recall from that time include dion and the belmonts, ricky nelson, and perry como
Como won the 1958 Grammy Award for Best Vocal Performance, male for "Catch a Falling Star". His final Top 40 hit was a cover of Don McLean's "And I Love You So", recorded in 1973.
may his memory be a blessing
Congratulations on publishing at C4SS.
